A typical used mattress may have anywhere from 100,000 to 2 million mites inside. Would you let people, especially children live in this environment? Of course you wouldn’t so have your mattress cleaned professionally and improve their health.
This method of chemical free disinfecting is already proven in the medical field. It is the easiest and most effective way to control allergen in the mattress with a guaranteed chemical free cleaning process. The equipment operation is simple and causes neither extreme noise nor dust. It is not dangerous to humans or animals. Mattresses may be left on the bed frame during cleaning.
How Does it Work?
- The machine generates high frequency waves that loosen and pulverise the excrement and dust mites.
- UV-C rays are passed over the mattress, these kill off bacteria, viruses, and spores, effectively sterilising the mattress without the need for chemicals.
- Dust Mites and excrement are then removed by a powerful vacuum system incorporating a HEPA filter to prevent any particles escaping.
The high tech mattress sanitizing process kills and removes the nasties hygienically without using water or toxic chemicals. Allergenic cleaning of the mattress will benefit people with allergies such as:
- Asthma
- Wheezing or tight chest
